Wright, a graduate of Empire College School of Law admitted to the State Bar of California in 1983, the firm has spent over forty years resolving family disputes throughout Sonoma County.

When you need to find a family lawyer or neutral mediator who commands deep statutory knowledge and judicial insight, Thomas D. Wright provides principled and cost-effective counsel.
Private Family Law Mediation and Collaborative Resolution
Navigating family conflict through formal courtroom litigation can be prohibitively expensive, emotionally draining, and unpredictable. Attorney Thomas D. Wright works through the Arbitration and Mediation Center (AMC) to facilitate structured, confidential family law mediations that allow parties to retain control over their legal outcomes. Rather than having a judge make binding decisions based on limited courtroom evidence, mediation gives couples the freedom to address historic family needs and craft workable, self-directed agreements. As a master mediator trained at Gary Friedman Center for Mediation in Law, attorney Wright guides represented parties through difficult financial and custodial discussions with neutrality, patience, and good-faith negotiation tactics.
High-Asset Divorce, Business Valuations, and Asset Division
Marital dissolutions involving private corporate entities, commercial real estate, and professional practices require sophisticated forensic accounting and legal analysis. Practicing as leading divorce lawyers, attorney Wright handles complex financial disputes, including business valuations of community and separate property enterprises, apportionment of stock options, and division of retirement pensions through qualified domestic relations orders. Spouses looking to hire a divorce attorney in Santa Rosa or an impartial mediator benefit from his decades of analyzing complex financial disclosures, tracing separate property contributions, and enforcing marital fiduciary duties under the California Family Code.
Child Custody, Parenting Plans, and Financial Support
Establishing stable arrangements for minor children is crucial for long-term family harmony. Serving as dedicated child custody lawyers and child support lawyers, the practice manages initial custody evaluations, parental schedules, and contentious move-away relocation petitions. Attorney Wright also assists grandparents seeking visitation under the California Family Code and helps parents calculate guideline child and spousal support orders. When life circumstances change, the office resolves post-judgment modification disputes and prenuptial agreement lawyers issues with tailored solutions that protect family stability.
